Each cell is one driver's chance of winning that Grand Prix across the same simulated seasons — brighter is likelier, scaled against the best single-race chance anyone holds. A row that fades out is a title fight ending quietly.

When it's mathematically over · drivers

Share of simulated seasons in which the title can no longer change hands by that round — the leader's margin is bigger than every point still available.

What it takes

Points maths, then your own what-if
The maths

LECLERC is 4 behind with 125 points still to race for.

He has to outscore ANTONELLI by 5 over the last 5 rounds, 4% of everything still available.

Even winning every race, he needs ANTONELLI to average no more than 24 points a weekend, about a P2 or worse every Sunday.

Our simulations give him 49%.

Ties on points go to whoever has more wins.
